WILPF Zimbabwe

WILPF Zimbabwe joined WILPF in 2016 following the realisation that, while Zimbabwean women suffer from constant discrimination, there was no national women’s organisation that tackled female security issues. The Section aims to represent women’s interests on a national level, while being active on the international level and influencing peace-building processes.

WILPF Zimbabwe strives to support women’s meaningful participation in building a sustainable culture of peace and democracy through the establishment of a solid footing in lobbying, advocacy, and campaign initiatives. The Section advocates against forced marriage, and campaigns to challenge gender stereotypes and to denounce domestic violence.
